Masataka Swizzle

SERVINGS: Makes 1 drink

Stanislav Vadrna • Paparazzi, Bratislava, Slovakia
Named for Japanese Nikka whisky founder Masataka Taketsuru, this drink was Vadrna's contribution to the Bartenders' Travelling Book. The tome is going around the world via FedEx to mixologists so that each can record (in longhand) cocktail lore.
